As the world continues to battle climate change and biodiversity loss, Filipinos from all walks of life are being urged to join the global Earth Hour 2023 celebration, which will mark the first in-person celebration in two years due to the pandemic.
The Philippines is among the countries most vulnerable to climate change, and extreme weather effects, such as stronger storms, intensified droughts, and extreme rainfall causing flooding, are already being felt, Ibay said.
Switching off lights for one hour during Earth Hour may seem like a small act, but when millions of people do it, it adds up to significant energy savings. Atty. Ibay explained that the switch-off is just the first step in raising awareness of our individual roles in protecting the environment.
